What does this mean? You will be able to play the beta starting from May 17th OR you will be able to play it until May 17th??? Not sure... I already have a key, giving mine to my friend. I think they're saying it's till the 17th. Hope it's longer than that though... This is like news worthy... May 17th, the end of beta!

That .co.uk reply sounds pretty generic, hopefully the support team just isn't aware of the offer yet as it hasn't gone live.
|
Well... like 5:30am, and no key yet from them, so going to bed. Hope to see it sitting there when I wake up

US rules?
+ Show Spoiler +They don't want to take the time/pay the money to ship to other countries. Sorry guys!
|
So have we to conclude that 17th may the beta will be closed?

take a look at the game now. think about whether both bnet and sc2 are at a releasable quality yet.
may 17th definitely seems too close

Probably the keys that are given out now wont be legit come may 17 because if someone hasnt activated them by then surely they dont care or arent capable of doing so.
Why would they do such a thing? A million reasons but probably may 17 is a milestone in development and they see it fit to actually have, atleast, some sort of grasp on the number of keys activated.

blizzard don't like europe...-_-
(their main money source)

This lack of appreciation for the EU is pretty annoying. Too bad I can't boycott Blizzard because their games are too good (
Already not going to buy anymore Valve games after how they decided it would be okay to charge 30% more from the stupid euros thru Steam.

Nice,
I pre-ordered the game with my credit card rewards program... which I know is powered by amazon. He's hoping that I get a key =P.

beta ends may 17, then retail version will be out.

Got this responsde from Amazon in EU.
Thank you for contacting Amazon.co.uk
Amazon.co.uk Video Games product information pages are the authoritative resources for any current special offers available on video games products sold by Amazon.co.uk.
Having checked the details for "Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty", I have found that there are no beta phase game codes available for this game on Amazon.co.uk.
|
Guys, it means that they are only offering keys on preorders made up until May 17th.
|
Starcraft 2 beta came out on the 17th of Febuary...March 17th is exactly 3 months after the beta started and Blizzard has said the beta will probably go for 3-5 months.
It doesn't mean the beta is going to finish on March 17th.
|
It would really suck if they end beta on May 17th and make us wait again for the release. Bnet 2.0 just had a huge failure last night too.
|
Funny story ... I cancelled my preorder from amazon.com to take advantage of the beta key for preordering from gamestop.com. I ended up saving 10 dollars and getting another game for my preorder at gamestop.com so it was all good. Then i got a beta key from both of them, and it was awesome.

best buy i have ever made, not only did i get it on sale i also got 1 day shipping and i still cost be under $45 and now i also get a beta key, i don't think it can get much better then that. Ill be playing a ton now see you guys on there( if the server is working that is )
